The proposed research will address the growing need for performance enhancement techniques and technologies for deep-sub-micron and nano-scale CMOS circuits. The target application of the research is integrated circuits, such as radio frequency transceivers, implantable biomedical devices, and data converters. Circuits will be devised to tune and correct non-ideal and unwanted circuit behaviour that is characteristic of the current and up-coming generations of nano-scale integrated circuit technologies. The research results will lead to increased energy efficiencies in integrated circuits, enhanced performance in the areas of operating speed, increased dynamic range, and low voltage operation. Product cost will also be reduced by increasing production yield. The research will enable designers to utilize up-coming integrated circuit technologies in a wider range of applications than otherwise currently possible.

拟议的研究将解决性能增强技术和深亚微米和纳米级CMOS电路技术日益增长的需求。 该研究的目标应用是集成电路，如射频收发器，植入式生物医学设备和数据转换器。电路将被设计为调整和纠正非理想和不必要的电路行为，这是当前和未来几代纳米级集成电路技术的特征。研究结果将提高集成电路的能效，增强工作速度、动态范围和低电压工作等方面的性能。产品成本也将通过提高产量而降低。这项研究将使设计人员能够在比目前可能的更广泛的应用中利用即将到来的集成电路技术。
